1 Kiwanis optional insurance resource guide

Financial stability is one of the most important considerations for any Kiwanis club. That’s why Kiwanis International provides general liability, directors and officers liability insurance to every club in the United States and Canada. However, Kiwanis has negotiated group pricing for additional coverage options—ensuring access to the level of protection your leadership desires.

In this brochure, you’ll find information for club accident insurance and crime insurance. Each option is available separately. (Crime insurance is available in the U.S. only.) Your club is not required to purchase either of them. However, we strongly encourage you to consider each one and discuss them during

upcoming board meetings.The following pages provide details regarding benefits,

premiums, deductibles and more—including examples of the possibilities that make each option worth considering.

After all, no club can guarantee that unforeseen events won’t happen. But you can help protect against their costs. Examine your options when it comes to issues such as theft, accidents and legal exposure.

Explore this opportunity to maintain your club’s confidence and stability—and help keep its focus on service and fellowship.

INCREASE YOUR CLUB’S FINANCIAL SECURITY

WHY BUY CRIME COVERAGE?Your Kiwanis club may be exposed to theft that could financially impact its ability to provide needed community service. Information in this brochure can help protect your club in case of such a theft or crime.

These insurance policies are voluntary. Kiwanis International does not require them, but strongly encourages your club’s consideration. Please review the following information for an in-depth description of the coverage.

Your club could face theft of funds or member dishonesty and may be exposed to a wide variety of crime-related losses, including falsified receipts, theft of equipment, petty cash theft or phony invoicing. The premium for crime insurance is $145 for a $10,000 limit of liability, with a $250 deductible. Higher limits are available if desired.

You are strongly encouraged to read and discuss these issues during your upcoming board meetings and determine whether your club needs the coverages.

Should questions arise, please contact Nathan Peterman, the Kiwanis International insurance broker at Hylant, +1-800-678-0361.

CRIME COVERAGE• Protects the club from theft of funds and dishonest volunteers,

members, officers and employees• Softens the cost to a club for theft or embezzlement and other

crime-related losses• Protects the integrity of Kiwanians

POLICY HIGHLIGHTS OF CRIME COVERAGE• Broad occurrence coverage for employee/volunteer theft,

premises, transit and depositors forgery• Broad definition of theft• Premises coverage includes computer theft, safe burglary

and robbery

The treasurer of a Kiwanis club had check-signing responsibility as well as access to its checking account. During his tenure, he set up a fictitious vendor who allegedly provided services for the club. The loss was not discovered until after he had left and was caught doing the same thing at his full-time employment. At this time, he admitted he had established the vendor “for the sole purpose of stealing from the organization.” As a result, the club found out he had stolen nearly $50,000.

Another Kiwanis club set up a consignment store to raise money

and developed a no-questions-asked return policy in which merchandise could be returned without a receipt. The volunteer who ran the store took advantage of this policy by altering the books to show false returns and paying himself in cash. He made transactions in small amounts to avoid drawing attention to the transactions. When the volunteer died unexpectedly, the fraud was discovered by the new bookkeeper. As a result, the club found out it had lost nearly $100,000 over the previous four years.

4 Kiwanis optional insurance resource guide 2017–18

Why buy accident insurance? As a Kiwanis officer, you know the importance of safety. But no matter how careful you are, accidents can happen. We are pleased to offer an optional accident insurance program that can cover guests, volunteers and members.

Your club can purchase accident coverage for club events where a member or volunteer may be injured:• Affordable accident insurance for volunteers and members

of the club• An important benefit program that shows you care and makes

your club more attractive

Who is eligible?All members and volunteers involved in a Kiwanis club-sponsored event, provided the club has paid the appropriate premium.

Covered activities All volunteers and members of the Kiwanis club are covered while participating in club-sponsored events, including but not limited to special events, fairs and fundraisers.

EnrollmentAny Kiwanis club may enroll. To apply, fill out the application and send it with your premium, as indicated. If you have any ques-tions, contact Nathan Peterman, the Kiwanis International insur-ance broker at Hylant, +1-800-678-0361.

Benefits1. Accidental deathIf injury shall result in the death of the insured person within 365 days of the covered accident causing the injury directly and independently of all other causes, the company will pay the accidental death benefit maximum amount under the program you have selected.

2. Accidental dismembermentIf injury to an insured person shall result within 365 daysafter the date of the covered accident causing injury directly and independently of all other causes, in any one of the losses specified on the form, the company will then pay the benefit percentage of the maximum amount under the program selected.

Injury: A Kiwanis club owns a portable refreshment trailer that it uses as a fundraiser by selling food items at local county fairs. A Kiwanis member sets up the trailer for an upcoming event and realizes it is not level. He’s the only one there, so he attempts to move it by himself by picking the trailer up by the tongue and pulling it. The trailer slips out of his hands, and the tongue strikes his foot, crushing it. The covered accident insurance may apply.

Injury: The Kiwanis club runs a weekly bingo game as a fundraiser, and the sponsored Key Club runs the concession stands. As one of the Key Clubbers is returning from the storage area carrying supplies, she trips over a wayward box (which she left there) and falls forward, hitting her head on the floor. The ambulance is called, and she is rushed to the hospital. She has a concussion and a cracked cheekbone. Her family does not have health coverage. The covered accident insurance may apply.

Death: A club’s annual fundraiser, a turkey shoot tournament, is conducted every November. The weather during the shoot is generally cold but not yet in the freezing range. This year the temperatures are colder than normal, with several days below freezing before the tournament. All participants are required to sign a waiver for the event. During the tournament, a participant is accidentally shot and killed by a bullet ricocheting off of a pond of ice. Even though the participant signed a waiver, the covered accident insurance may apply.

Dismemberment: A Kiwanis club is making repairs to a local homeless shelter as a service project. A member is helping repair the external wood trim, using his own table saw to cut the trim into appropriately sized pieces. At one point during the afternoon, there’s a lot of commotion around the area where he is cutting the trim. He becomes distracted and accidentally cuts off his index finger. He is rushed to the emergency room, where efforts to reattach his finger fail. The covered accident insurance may apply.
